Re: SIRCE Funding Message

[Krzysztof Silicki <]

Dear Mr. Karrenberg,


As a Coordinator  of CERT NASK  (an IRT established in NASK, POland) I am
very interested in project to provide incident responce cordination in
Europe. However I have some comments to your "contribution scheme" as you
have desribed in your proposition: 



> The benefits for those contributing include:
> 
> 	- Preferred Service 
> 	  Non-paying customers will only receive service if there is
> 	  no outstanding work for paying customers.
> 
> 	- Influence
> 	  Paying customers will determine the general direction,
> 	  the policies and the services of SIRCE.
> 
> 	- Credit
> 	  The level of your contribution will be publicly acknowledged.


As you know coordination of incident handling relies on strict cooperation
among IRTs, ISPs , customer representatives and many others. Therefore you
cannot ignore request just because it is from non-paying customer
(assuming you have some "payed" requests to handle) because it can be
dangerous to all constituency you serve. Hence I can imagine that paying
customers have "full service" but those non-paying should receive some
basic level of incident handling services. This is important at least from
the statistical point of view (how many incidents, what kind of incidents
etc.)Those who are paying should also be interested in handling of every
incident by "European CERT" instead of handling of selected ones - because
everybody is interconnected.  



Best regards,
